Nine years after Honda killed the S2000, there are still no signs that the well-loved roadster will ever come alive again.

According to AutoGuide who spoke to Honda Canada’s Senior Manager of Product Planning, Hayato Mori, said that successor of the S2000 will never happen as car owners are buying into the crossovers and SUVs trend for the same amount of money.

With no demand for roadsters, it is difficult for the companies to justify spending money on developing new versions of these two door cars.

For those that still want a good mix of practicality and fun will likely end up buying hot hatches such as the Honda Civic Type R, rendering the chances of the revival of the S2000 very slim.
